Find the Cheapest GPU Route

GPU rental prices change constantly.

Instead of checking multiple cloud GPU providers manually, gpu-price-finder lets you compare available GPU routes directly from your terminal.

Use it to search:

• Cheap RTX 4090 rental
• Cheap RTX 3090 rental
• RTX 5090 cloud GPU pricing
• L40S GPU rental
• A100 cloud GPU pricing
• H100 GPU rental pricing
• GPU rental availability by region
• Low-cost GPU routes for AI, rendering, training, inference, simulation, and other GPU-heavy workloads

Quick Start

npx gpu-price-finder --gpu H100 --json

Example Output

Default (npx gpu-price-finder)

Top 2 routes each for RTX_4090, L40S, and A100.

Detailed (npx gpu-price-finder --gpu RTX_4090)

Searching GPU routes...

Cheapest RTX_4090 routes:

1. Route A   $0.53/hr   Tier 2   US   available
2. Route B   $0.86/hr   Tier 1   EU   available
3. Route C   $0.92/hr   Tier 2   US   available

Recommendation
Use:

badgr run "<your-command>" --gpu RTX_4090 --tier 2 --max-price 0.53 --max-runtime 60

Routes are masked as Route A, Route B, Route C, etc. Underlying provider details, host IDs, and internal offer IDs are never shown.

How GPU Route Search Works

AI Badgr searches across multiple GPU capacity sources and returns available GPU rental routes based on your filters.

Routes are grouped by tier.

Tier 1

Managed GPU routes optimized for:

• Reliability
• Smoother startup
• More predictable availability
• Production workloads

Tier 2

Lower-cost GPU routes optimized for:

• Cheapest available pricing
• Price-sensitive workloads
• Batch jobs
• Experiments
• Flexible compute demand

Provider details are abstracted.

You compare:

• GPU type
• Hourly GPU price
• Region
• Tier
• Availability

without needing to compare individual providers manually.

Supported GPU Types

Examples include:

• RTX 3090
• RTX 4090
• RTX 5090
• L40S
• A100
• H100

Other accelerator types may also be available depending on live capacity.

CLI Options

Search flags:

--gpu RTX_4090
--region US|EU|AU
--max-price 1
--tier 1
--tier 2
--sort price
--limit 5
--available-only

Output flags:

--json
--full
--help

Defaults:

No --gpu: overview of RTX_4090, L40S, A100 (2 routes each)
--gpu: detailed mode, 5 routes, tier/region/availability shown
Tier: Any
Sort: Price

Supported GPU examples: RTX_3080, RTX_3090, RTX_4080, RTX_4090, RTX_5090, A4000, A5000, A6000, L40S, A100, H100.

When no routes match, the CLI also shows masked alternatives from the API (other GPU types that may fit your budget).
